We are experiencing a much-needed lull — Amy is asleep. Started her nap rather earlier than usual, and though she cried a bit just a few minutes ago, she’s apparently asleep again.
She woke up crying, and only stopped a few times for a few moments each. Her eyes are sad and tired-looking. Sometimes she trembles. She wouldn’t eat any breakfast, but downed her milk and some water very quickly. Spent the morning in her room hardly doing anything.
Yesterday was fussy, too, and without appetite.
She’s got some rash, some scratches on her belly from nails I didn’t get clipped until yesterday (and I cut a bit of thumb, which didn’t help matters), she’s had a minor cold for a while.
Not sure what else could be wrong — no fever, her ears don’t seem to bother her. Maybe a tooth — but most of her teeth haven’t bothered her, at least not obviously.
We have both been using our earplugs. Amy thinks it’s interesting to see them — she turns one’s face back and forth to study those colorful bits in our ears.

Well, around lunchtime the fever appeared. Called the doctor; gave Tylenol. She has continued to be tired but is less fussy and even plays and eats a bit.
